Iran has made threats about wiping Israel off the map, and Israel is understandably worried about them getting a nuclear weapon. Now, it can't be confirmed if Iran is even trying to build a nuclear weapon at this stage though. However, if there was proof, I think someone would have acted on it by now.
I am trying to figure out how they would go about attacking Iran. Would Israel send bunker-buster missiles to specific targets? Do they have a navy in the Red Sea that could refuel or transport their planes if they go the long way around? Or do you think Jordan and Iraq will let them fly over? Will they even notice or be able to do anything if they do fly over?

Bush would love to make a parking lot out of Iran but I don't think Obama will just sit by and let Israel be destroyed. Toss in the Russians and a great time would be had by all.

And that is why the UN was formed. Hopefully, there can be talks between Russia, the US, France and Iran over what is going on.
